The last of the Summer Afternoon images is the bicycle.
After stamping with Stazon Jet Black on watercolour paper, and colouring with inks and a Blender pen, I layered the image on a piece of Elegant Eggplant which had been embossed with the Elegant Bouquet TIEF. The embossed image was highlighted with Frost White Shimmer Paint and a dauber. This was layered onto a Naturals White base. I did not think this needed a sentiment. It produces a relaxed look just as it is.
When I first saw this Hostess set, I didn’t think it was one that I would find myself using very much. However, after colouring these three images, I can see they have many possibilities. You will see them again here in the not too distant future.
